Analysis of the Relationship of Age, Parity and Hemoglobin Levels towards Benign Neoplastic Ovarian Tumors in RSU Vina Estetica in 2024

Abstract

The most common ovarian tumors in women are benign ovarian tumors, with an incidence of approximately 80%, the majority being cystic lesions and the remainder malignant ovarian tumors. Benign ovarian tumors are abnormal growths in the ovaries that do not spread to surrounding tissues. Factors influencing the risk of ovarian tumors include age, parity, hemoglobin levels, genetic factors and family history, use of hormonal therapy or contraceptive drugs, as well as environmental and lifestyle factors. This study aimed to examine the relationship between age, parity, and hemoglobin levels and the occurrence of benign neoplastic ovarian tumors. This observational analytic study employed a cross-sectional approach on 107 patients diagnosed with benign neoplastic ovarian tumors at RSU Vina Estetica in 2024. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate methods with the chi-square test. The results showed a significant relationship between age and the occurrence of benign neoplastic ovarian tumors (p = 0.005) and between parity and the occurrence of benign neoplastic ovarian tumors (p = 0.037). Meanwhile, hemoglobin levels did not show a significant association with the occurrence of benign neoplastic ovarian tumors (p = 0.191). In conclusion, age and parity are significantly associated with the occurrence of benign neoplastic ovarian tumors, whereas hemoglobin levels do not show a significant association.
